Santo's surgery postponed

Ron Santo said surgery on his bladder could be postponed by as much as a month.

After undergoing a stress test Friday in Arizona, Santo reported that his doctors had some concern over a couple of his arteries. He had a coronary bypass procedure in 2000.

The Cubs broadcaster and former third baseman said on the pregame show on WGN-AM 720 that he will undergo an angiogram and that doctors should know more Monday. He said surgery to remove tumors in his bladder Wednesday has been postponed.

"They might wait a couple of weeks, maybe a month," Santo said. "If they . . . wait a month, I'm definitely going to come back for the World Series."

Santo said he is feeling fine. Doctors, however, want to make sure he is strong enough to tolerate the surgery. "I want to get it done, but they are being very protective," Santo said.
